Peter Rabbit has been loved by families for over 119 years and is now honored on a special £ 5 coin.

Royal Mint has released a new £ 5 Peter Rabbit coin, and it’s a collectible must-have for all Beatrix Potter fans.

The £ 5 coin, which is now available for purchase, features an original illustration by Beatrix Potter, with the story words of Mrs. Josephine Rabbit: “Now run, and do no harm.”

In the illustration, Mrs. Rabbit can be seen dressing the mischievous Peter Rabbit, who we believe will wreak havoc on Mr. McGregor’s backyard in no time!
